- tedunangst 3y agoThe alleged proof that they configured the ports wrong is a picture from their Intel framework review. "We're using the same pictures as a previous review because it's the exact same laptop." You can see the same picture here: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/05/review-framework-laptops-13th-gen-intel-upgrade-helps-fix-its-battery-problem/ https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/05/review-framework-lap... The Ars review also even mentions this problem: "Framework also says the rear ports enter a "high-power mode" when USB-A modules are connected to them, which can reduce battery life." Either way, glad we have a new product we can blame the user for holding wrong.
